I decided to turn (in and out) the engagement, the spring and the over travel. The over travel and the engagement adjustment seemed fine. The spring/tension however, not so much. There was no spring pressure. The engagement varied from each time I pulled the trigger there was no evidence of spring pressure. I didn’t know for sure but suspected the spring was so gummed up that it would not function. I took the trigger off, installed an aftermarket trigger. Maybe someday I’ll soak that trigger in Kroil or carb Cleaner or... ( I used to take these triggers apart and inspect, repair if necessary. Due to arthritis and several damaged fingers over the years and difficulty I have getting that safety lever back on, I no longer do such work. )
My assumption is that WD-40 sold another rifle. I wonder how much work gunsmiths get from shooters/hunters using of such products???
I shouldn’t bitch. I now have a very nice old (the way I like them) BDL.
Let me get this straight - the trigger spring had a problem. You replaced the original trigger. Then without even bothering to look at the problem spring you decided that WD-40 must be the cause without a shred of evidence. That's some Olympic class jumping to conclusions.
